Beams

Frequently Asked Questions

Aluminum beams are structural components used to span large distances and support temporary roofing systems, platforms, or enclosure structures. Their lightweight yet high-strength profile makes them ideal for overhead or cantilevered applications.

Aluminum beams are significantly lighter than steel, making them easier to transport, lift, and install. Despite the lower weight, they offer excellent strength-to-weight performance and corrosion resistance, especially in outdoor or wet environments.

North Scaffold Products offers unit (450) beams, diamond (780) beams, lattice girders, and aluminum stringers (I-Beams). Our beams can be used with our line of accessories to create overhead roof protection, bridging scaffolds, cantilever platforms etc.

Yes. All aluminum beams sold by North Scaffold Products are engineered and load-tested for use in demanding conditions, including snow loading, wind uplift, and dynamic forces encountered on worksites.

A ridge unit (450) beam is an angled “peak” designed to create a duo-pitched temporary roof structure with our unit (450) beams. This is a good option for scaffolders looking to create a temporary roof with typical tube & clamp bracing in areas with lower snow loads.

Absolutely. North Scaffold Products designs its beams for long service life, with high quality materials and corrosion-resistant finishes. When properly maintained, they can be reused over many projects.
